Ejemplos

En el ejemplo de código siguiente se muestra cómo usar la ErrorProvider clase para notificar al usuario un error de entrada de datos. En el ejemplo se crea un Form objeto que contiene un TextBox control, un NumericUpDown control y un ComboBox control, cada uno validando su contenido y un ErrorProvider para cada control. En el ejemplo se establecen las opciones de icono de error mediante las BlinkRate propiedades y BlinkStyle y los SetIconAlignment métodos y SetIconPadding . Se SetError llama al método con o sin texto de error adecuado durante el evento de Validated un control, en función del contenido del control.

Comentarios

ErrorProvider presenta un mecanismo sencillo para indicar al usuario final que un control de un formulario tiene un error asociado. Si se especifica una cadena de descripción de error para el control, aparece un icono junto al control. El icono parpadea de la manera especificada por BlinkStyle, a la velocidad especificada por BlinkRate. Cuando el mouse mantiene el mouse sobre el icono, aparece una información sobre herramientas que muestra la cadena de descripción del error.

Normalmente, se usa ErrorProvider en asociación con controles enlazados a datos. Al usar ErrorProvider con controles enlazados a datos, debe especificar , ContainerControlya sea en el constructor o estableciendo la ContainerControl propiedad .

Nota

El componente ErrorProvider no proporciona compatibilidad integrada con clientes de accesibilidad. Para que la aplicación sea accesible al usar este componente, debe proporcionar un mecanismo de comentarios adicional y accesible.
